Uncontrolled Resource Consumption

A flaw was discovered in Wildfly's EJB Client as shipped with Red Hat JBoss EAP 7, where some specific EJB transaction objects may get accumulated over the time and can cause services to slow down and eventaully unavailable. An attacker can take advantage and cause denial of service attack and make services unavailable.

Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime

A flaw was found in Wildfly affecting versions 19.0.0.Final, 19.1.0.Final, 20.0.0.Final, 20.0.1.Final, and 21.0.0.Final. When an application uses the OpenTracing API's java-interceptors, there is a possibility of a memory leak. This flaw allows an attacker to impact the availability of the server. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.

Uncontrolled Resource Consumption

Undertow in Red Hat wildfly before version 11.0.0.Beta1 is vulnerable to a resource exhaustion resulting in a denial of service. Undertow keeps a cache of seen HTTP headers in persistent connections. It was found that this cache can easily exploited to fill memory with garbage, up to "max-headers" (default 200) * "max-header-size" (default 1MB) per active TCP connection.
